Ideas for measuring change-current quasielastic interactions in the T2K near detection

  • 1. Institut de Fisica Corpuscular, C.S.I.C/universitat de Valencia, Valencia (Spain)

Description

the peak energy of the very narrow-band neutrino beam that the T2K experiment uses, was selected in such a way that the big majority of neutrino interactions seen in the near detector complex of the T2K experiment, ND280, will be charged current quasielastic (CCQE) interactions. One of the main components of ND280, is the 'Tracker' sub detector. The combination of substantial fiducial mass, with the superb track and particle identification capabilities of the sub detector, present an excellent opportunity for detailed measurement of the CCQE interactions there. We present a Monte-Carlo study of a a possible approach to the measurement of CCQE interactions in the ND280 Tracker, and discuss possible future extension of the method.
